Courtesy of Amazon Japan we have some nice high quality official images of the upcoming Takara Tomy Transformers Go! figures G19 Hunter Ratchet, G08 Budora, G09 Goradora Set, G10 Hishoumaru. According to previous hobby magazine scans this version of Ratchet is actually a Decepticon. We also get a nice look at one the Swordbot Shinobi Team's combined modes. Check out the images mirrored below.

You gotta love those Go! figures, especially with their uniformal color schemes (though my copy of Cheetimus Prime's Terrorsaur redeco, Classics Brawn and blue Smokescreen form Prime were used from the Hasbro versions), except Bee and Predaking/Dragotron had small changes. But with Ratchet having red eyes and windows, would he:

A) He would die and later get rebuilt by the Decepticons?ORB) Disguise himself as a new Decepticon to tell his comrades about the Cons' plans?

Autobot. Takara uses Hasbro terms these days (save for Masterpieces and Encores).

When did they start doing that?

2007, with the Movie 1 toys. Since then, the Japanese toylines of ROTF, Animated, Autobot Alliance, United, DOTM, the final toys of Alternity, Prime Arms Micron, and Generations have all used Hasbro (or Hasbro-based) names.
